Change Cyclist to ORV (Off Road Vehicle), make the skill more easily trained

Since we're never going to get motorcycles in the game, but we have a skill for them. Lets, instead, adjust the skill to something that is in.

Change skill name from Cyclist to ORV.
Then put Off-road Buggy and, maybe, Dustup in the category.

I know better then to ask Sam for something that'd take much coding work.
But, I'm guessing this would be a fairly simple matter of changing the skill title and switching a couple flags on the vehicle(s) to be included.

Some new skills should be added as well for that category, such as "preventing chassis damage from offroad driving", "preventing tyre damage", "increase acceleration on sand" or perhaps "decreasing chance of turtleing".

I agree with you. Getting specialisms for a skill you never used in-game always seemed wrong to me.

A No Risk version of DW does not sound very appealing. You gonna ask for bubble wrap next??  :rolleyes:

I do not ask. Just giving ideas of specialisms related to offroad driving. I am sure you can find better ones.

While any new specs would be welcome, they'd take coding. Which means time.
And, I suspect, we've all got a wishlist of new stuff we'd like to see if Sam were to start putting significant time into DW again.

But this isn't that.
This is just a little something that might get Sam to say to himself "Hmm.. not a bad idea and I can have that done before the delivery guy gets here with my pizza."  ;)

Makes sense and fits with the game - good idea

Rather than new specs maybe you could get pathfinder via off road as well as the other driving skills

It is one of those things that if we knew where he lived we would have to randomly order/prepay for pizza. KEEP BRIBING HIM!!

I knew where he USED to live........and buying him pizza sounds like something I would do from half a world away. But he moved, so need a new plan.

How about hiring a private detective to find out where he lives now?

Well I have a fair idea of the name of the town he lives in..... there is a big clue around here

Shouldn't be too hard to work the rest out with some digging - or is that just too creepy B)

PS don't forget the rest of the family when you buy the pizza or perhaps he would prefer curry?

What about changing it to snow driving since we got morgan now. still offroad driving in a way, but specifically for snow. less skidding, based on skill level.
